You should be able, but that's what I can't do.

Do you mean on your computer where you entered credentials in past to get
write access? That would be the difference. The two computers I mentioned
were a fresh install without someone's credentials as well as the Docker
test.

It says "The certificate is not issued by a trusted authority". After
accepting permanently, it does not ask again as expected.

No idea, seems independent, but appeared at a similar time (the certificate
issue may not happen outside of Docker, not sure).

I can't try the other computers now, but in Docker, I still get the same
result:

docker run -it --rm ubuntu

apt update -y
apt install -y subversion
svn checkout https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/trunk
